Hi All
I appologize in advance if this is the wrong place to post this thread. Im all ears if anyone has a better part of the forum.
I have an Old, Red, Panasonic V3, Three Tube Studio Camera that is fully operational. It is in need of alignment. If there are any old farts out here like me, that know of any old school techs who could do this affordably, I would appreciate it. We use it for special apps and looks for certain projects. It just has a look that cannot be emulated.
I also have a Sony BVV5 Dockable Betacam SP deck, the transport is all messed up, a motor starts running the second you drop a tape in and the error lights go bezerk. I use with an adapter as a stand alone portable BetacamSP recording deck. It Has worked well for 6 years and has come in very handy for pool feeds during political season. Plus, if it vanished among the chaos, it would have not been the end of the world. They used to be plentiful cause most news jockeys hated them docked on the back of a DXC D30-35-50 ETC., including myself. I could use a few name drops on fixing this.
My former tech's company here in Cleveland has folded, (Patlin Electronics) I dont know where he (John, the tech, dont know his last name) ended up at but man, he could fix anything you threw at him and do it with a patronizing smile.
